Work Study Students

How work study works

Work study is awarded through the Office of Financial Aid. At the beginning of the semester, 80% of your Work Study award is applied to your student billing account (for example, if your fall award is $1,250 then $1,000 was applied). Throughout the semester, you "work off" the amount applied to your student account. If you do not earn the 80% of work study funds applied to your Student Account, you will be responsible to pay the un-earned funds back to the college. You also have potential to earn all 100% of your Work Study award.

As a Work Study recipient, it is your responsibility to secure a job and earn the amount applied to your Student Account.

Apply for work study positions

Every student who has been awarded Work Study through the Office of Financial Aid must complete an online, Work Study application for our office to provide to on and off campus employers in preparation of the Work Study Job Fair in August. Please be sure to include an email address you check regularly, as this will be our primary method of communicating with you!

Awarded Work Study student employees can complete the online Work Study Application here. You will need your MasterNet login and password to access the Application tool.

We strongly encourage you to complete and submit your Work Study Application by July 22, 2015; by doing so you will be included in the first batch of student application available for consideration.

Search the work study job board

Students with Work Study Awards can view the Work Study Job Board through their Content Management account starting July 22, 2015. At that time, you are welcome to contact supervisors, gather data, and set up preliminary interviews for the Work Study Job Fair.

NOTE: The Work Study Job Board is DIFFERENT than the regular TMC Job Board which is available to the public.
